    Haye had a lot of flaws so size wouldn`t be a factor, I haven`t seen Langford fight but it`s been said Johnson ducked him and there`s no way Jack would have ducked a fighter like Haye in his respective era despite his power and size, Johnson was better than Haye so there`s every chance Langford was too.

    Yeah but don’t forget Haye smashed John Ruiz up and Ruiz beat Holyfield. The same Holyfield that knocked out Tyson who almost killed Berbick who had previously beaten Ali. You think Ali couldn’t have beaten Langford?

    Haye was all talk. Clearest example of a fighter without a fighters heart.

    You mean the bout where he injured himself in round six and was stopped in round 11?
